"Shine (Wes & KC)"
(Wes Johnson & Ken Clinger )
lyrics by Ken Clinger
The thoughts inside your head
have gotten to the point of no return
it's time to
raise the peppermints from the dead
and meet the pixies in your flower bed
and give your dreams their
turn into your secret twin
and cast off all those doubts
about the laughing fountain you've seen within
that lovely fairy child's happy grin
that thrills you till you shout
We're made of golden sunlight
We're made of silver laughter
We're from beyond the darkness
smiling when your happy moments shine
The dreams beyond your mind
have risen to the height and strength you yearn
to live them
take the leap across the line
Now float until you reach cloud nine
and laugh with joy re-
turning with your secret twin
it's hide and seek without the waiting
let the fountain raise you high
renew your friendship with the sky
it's time for cele-
brating for no reason
everyboy wins a golden ring
for always
just remember that this is real
that when the clouds try to conceal
we're here and we sing
We're made of golden sunlight
We're made of silver laughter
We're from beyond the darkness
smiling when your happy moments shine
